They definitely didn't offer a blood test, but I can see how that would be helpful in this situation. I think i'll have to go back and straight demand it at this point if they don't suggest it first. I've read about the honey method and may give that a shot. I'm worried this problem lies...

Here's some pictures of how I found Reign yesterday. I did manage to get both eyes open, but the eye that had the black gunk around it was MUCH harder. This black stuff turns hard like a rock and takes some dabs of warm water to loosen and remove. Pic 1, worst eye https://ibb.co/8bXk5rt Pic 2...

Ah okay. Makes sense. Glad to hear that at least! Don't mind the stupid dial thermometer. I stuck it on the first day we brought him home then bought a temp gun that seems to be fairly accurate. I just never removed the dial one assuming it'd leave an ugly residue behind. I hope I have the...

Thank you for the quick response, Brandon. I will see if I can get the UVB closer to him for better effectiveness. I do have a picture on hand of his tank. It's just opposite now. Log is on right side, tree is on left, and no more hammock. The lighting is the same. https://ibb.co/TRYmrH7...

Hey everyone, Our beardie, Reign, is having some pretty debilitating eye issues as of late. I'll try to bullet point the tank/food layout, to start: - 40 gallon tank with carpet all his life - Basking spot about 95-100 degrees depending on where you shoot the thermometer gun - UVB has always...

Thank you so much for asking! We did do a vet visit about 2 weeks ago where he prescribed her some eye drops and did a fecal test finding a very minor case of pin worms that I'd like to get taken care of. Otherwise, I have begun giving Reign a multi-vitamin powder dose twice a week...

That's what I've been thinking/hoping, but this has been going on for almost a month now, and her head is about to shed for the second time since noticing this. :( I'll have to find a little magnifying glass because I'm not seeing anything with a naked eye. She really is seeming more lethargic...

Just want to bump this to the top for more awareness. I've been giving Reign repta rinse and cleaning out the gunk out of her eyes daily for a little over a week. When I say "gunk", I mean it's an off-clear mucus kind of look. There's not much, it just kind of gunks up on the bottom of her...

Thank you for the heads up. It's hard to tell from the image, but she was very upright and not flat on her back (picture it as I could've put her back against a wall and she'd be fully upright with her head leaned forward, if that makes sense). I do know about their gravity held lungs...

Awesome. I'm glad you agree with the setup. The distance is probably 6-8 inches. I would love to mount the tube under the screen. Could I just mount the housing on the back glass with the tube facing directly toward her? I did manage to get what I believe are a couple of great pictures that...

Tracie, The saline solution sounds like a good idea. Should I also kind of blot her (I'll call her a "her" for simplicity lol) eye dry as well if I gently can after the solution? Below will be a few pics that may be hard to tell of light placement now that I'm looking at them. The 10.0 tube is...
